and from the american point of view it's more about prestige and obama put a lot of effort into these negotiations and it's been his main foreign political objective, again, when we saw considerations of the strikes in syria, perhaps the decision was with this deal in mind and not wanting to antagonize the iranians. >> what if we get another formal extension. wouldn't that reduce the chances of a deal actually coming through to 10 or 20%? >> i think so. both sides have a want to avoid another formal extension. this time they were a bit more cautious. saying we might require a few more days or weeks to get this done. another extension that gives congress more time to prepare potentially blocking this deal there are concerns over health so time is of the essence here. >> you mentioned the supreme leader's health. why is that so important? >> not a lot is known about this but he's the one that if he becomes ill you'll see a power struggle between hard liners and more modern elements and that could put a deal on hold. so that's a potential risk that has been come what overlooked. >> okay.
